tery indicator is not lit. Connect the AC adaptor.

[ExpressCard slot] to [Disable] in the [Advanced] menu of the Setup Utility.
The power is turned on but
“Warming up the system (up
to 32 minutes)” appears. The computer is warming up before start up. Wait for the computer to start up (takes
up to 32 minutes). If, “Cannot warm up the system” is displayed, the computer failed
to warm up and does not start. In this case, turn off the computer, leave it in an envi-
ronment of 5 °C {41 °F} or higher temperature for about an hour, and then turn on the
power again.

tion is slow. Press F9 in the Setup Utility ( page 24 “To start the Setup Utility”) to return the Setup
